In honor of Rising Ground’s 190th Anniversary, the Staff 190th Committee has compiled recipes from staff, friends, donors, partners, and from our historical archives. Scroll through below or download a full PDF here.

The Rising Ground 190th Anniversary Staff Committee wants to thank everyone who helped make this cookbook happen. We want to especially thank our staff who added their special recipes to the book. Rising Ground has more than 1,600 employees working for 55 programs in more than 70 locations across New York City and Westchester County. One of our goals was to try and capture the diversity within our staff and the communities we support through these recipes. We hope you find something special in these pages that will become part of your family traditions.

We also want to thank Nykisha Brown, Director of Administration, for getting us all together and Patrick Lattin, Communications Manager, for designing the book. Finally, a special thanks to Sharon Pyle for compiling the recipes and guiding this project.
